evam indre haraty aśvaṃ vainya-yajña-jighāṃsayā /

24 & 25. When thus Indra was carrying away the horse in order to interrupt Prithu's sacrifice and when he frequently seized and abandoned the horse, the mind of men was taken up with sinful theories of seeming righteousness such as those of Digambara Jainas, Buddhas of red clothes and others, which appeared righteous in their view and very charming and eloquent through misapprehension.
